Can I use my fiber supplement in my NutriBullet?

Prior to purchasing my Nutribullet, I have used a fiber blend supplement with orange juice. The blend contains fiber, vitamins and plant sterols and has lowered by cholesterol. Is it ok to add this to my Nutribullet mixes? There's a warning on the side of the fiber blend package that says I should take any medications at least one hour before or two hours after taking the fiber supplement to avoid impeding absorption. If I mix in the fiber blend supplement with the nutribullet mix, am I impeding the absorption of the vitamins and minerals from the nutribullet mixture?

Official Answer

Sethbt you are going to get a lot of fiber, vitamins, minerals, enzymes, antioxidant and plant sterols when using the Nutribullet so I would not add additional fiber to it unless your doctors tells you to. What you are taking is isolated fiber and nutrients that are contained in many vegetables, fruits, nuts and seeds, beans and whole grains.

Exercise is one of the best ways to lower and balance cholesterol in combination with a plant based diet.

I need a lot of fiber for my IBS and diverticulitis
and I put in 1/2 cup of milled oatmeal to my morning blast which is equal, I think to the commercial orange kind.. with yogurt and kefir and about 1/3 of a banana and some
blueberries. It doesn't taste great, but it serves its purpose. I have still not worked out a regimen for myself, but for lunch whatever blast I have,
I put in 2 tablespoon of wheat germ. For supper I like to eat a regular meal but I have been so busy
preparing my little plastic wrapped packages of fruits and vegetables to freeze that I really have not worked out a plan for supper and many times I will have a blast.
